"Millard wasn't absorbed. It was annexed. And the community never forgot the difference."
Millard became part of Omaha in 1971, but anyone who's lived here long enough knows that Millard is Millard. With Millard Public Schools as one of the largest districts in Nebraska, this community invests in itself. That shows in its neighborhoods, its homes, and the people who maintain them.
Great Plains Painting works with homeowners across Western Oaks, Pacific Hollow, Cambridge Oaks, Millard Park, and the newer construction in North Streams. Whether your ranch was built in 1978 or your split-level went up in 1994, we know what it takes to prep and paint Millard's housing stock right.

Most Millard Homes Were Built Between 1970-1995. That Means They're Due.
The math is simple: if your Millard ranch was built in 1982 and last painted in 2012, you're at the 12-year mark. In Nebraska's climate, that's right on schedule for a new exterior coat.
Original vinyl siding from the late 1980s and early 1990s is now 25-35 years old. Much of it is still structurally sound and paintable with the right preparation and products.
Trim and shutters age faster than siding. Original builder-grade shutters from 1988 often need repainting long before the main body of the house does.

What We Paint
Built for Millard's Housing Stock
From 1970s ranches to 1990s split-levels to newer two-stories in North Streams, we've painted them all.
Ranch Homes (1970s-1990s)
The backbone of Millard. Single-story ranches with aluminum or vinyl siding, attached garage, and original trim. We prep carefully and apply a full two-coat exterior finish.
Split-Levels & Two-Story
Common in Pacific Hollow and Cambridge Oaks from the late 1980s to mid-1990s. More complex profiles mean more prep and staging time. We account for that in our quotes.
Trim, Shutters & Front Doors
You don't always need a full repaint. Original builder-grade trim and shutters from the 1980s and 1990s often fade long before the siding fails. A focused refresh makes a major difference.

What Your Neighbors Are Saying
"We've used Great Plains Painting three times now. Our 1979 ranch in Western Oaks has never looked better. They know exactly what this era of home needs. Prep, prep, prep. That's what makes it last."
Pat & Linda M.
Western Oaks | Exterior Repaint
"Did the full exterior and interior refresh on our 1988 split-level in Pacific Hollow. Big job. They kept us informed every step, matched the color perfectly, and finished two days ahead of schedule."
Kevin D.
Pacific Hollow | Exterior + Interior
"I was hesitant to spend money on cabinet refinishing but they showed me exactly what it would look like. My kitchen looks completely new for about 20% of what replacing the cabinets would have cost."
